#93465 - Uart Automatic Address Recognition |
Hi, I have search through the forum but yet to see any info on how to connect single Master and many slaves physically.
I cannot use other configuration, like RS422, RS485 because I got no more space on my small PCB. I am using At89RC51RC2 uP. I have about 100 slaves to link up to 1 master. I intend to do it this way. Master(tx) --> Slave1(Rx) --> Slave2 (rx) --> Slave3 (rx) ... 100 Master(rx) --> Slave1(tx) --> Slave2 (tx) --> Slave3 (tx) ... 100 Each Slave is uniquely addressed through a hardware DIP switch. 1) Is the TX line high impedance in UART mode? 2) Can I connect all the Slaves' RX line together. 3) What about all the Tx line together? My concern is if Slave100th starts transmitting, it will be sinking current from 100 devices, seems pretty scary to me. 4) Has anyone did this before? Thanks. Ow |
